Upgrade Notes

See Upgrade notes for important upgrade and installation notes when upgrading from previous versions (most notably 1.5 and earlier). Additionally the following items are important when you want to use the encryption module.

- you MUST (also when using the Debian/RPM packages) manually add one additional column to the
files table in the filesender database:

    $ psql filesender  
    alter table files add column fileencryption int ;

- New crypto_* configurables in config.php

    // crypto settings
    $config["crypto_enabled"] = false; // Set to true to enable end2end encryption module
    $config["crypto_default_enabled"] = false; // Set to true to encrypt files by default
    $config['crypto_max_filesize'] = 250*1024*1024 ; // Max filesize for encryption, 0 will allow any size.

     - Changes in the default mail templates
     - Changes in the default en_AU and nl_NL language files
     - Default not enabled, enable in config.php
